Personal Information

Since January 2025 I work as a postdoctoral fellow at the Chair of Philosophy and Decision Theory. Before joining the MCMP, I was a research fellow at the Institute Vienna Circle were I was working on 'epistemic conflicts'. In 2024 I received my PhD from the University of Leeds (UK) as PhD-researcher affiliated with the ERC-funded project "Group Thinking: New Foundations" on contemporary issues in social ontology and collective epistemology

Research Interests


My current research focus lies in epistemology, especially the intersection between collective and social epistemology. I am also interested in various related epistemological questions in philosophy of science, philosophy of mind and decision theory.
